NEW PAINTING Cosmos

"Cosmos", 12" x 16", acrylics, collage and graphite on artboard, sold while still in process, directly off my easel, and now winging her way home. I accept paypal, personal checks and payment plans. Inquiries may always come to me.

I am so grateful to have collectors and followers that welcome and embrace my artwork so enthusiastically. Thank you for that!

Of the five new works I've created in the past two weeks, three of them have already found new homes. Harlequin and Prescience remain available - not because they are any less beautiful than the others, but most likely because they were born alongside peaks in this ceaseless storm surge of news here in the US, where the majority of my collectors and followers reside. I have included images of them below, in case, for whatever reason, you missed their original posts.

And meanwhile, I have more pieces in process. I share working images on my social media accounts (Facebook and Insta), and you are welcome to inquire or place a deposit on a piece that thrills you, no matter if it's yet completed. And if you want an even deeper look at my process, please check out my online classroom, which is essentially a self-paced standing invitation into my studio each week, with content reaching back over 18 months.

Thanks, as always, for also being at my side and following along on my art journey,
Warmly, Kim

Picture Book "A Dog Named Blue" - now available!!

The cover of "A Dog Named Blue," now available from Blurb publishers. When I first painted Amelia I never imagined that she would be re-christened "Blue" and inspire a book. In her defense, Amelia had a number of other partners in crime - animals who's portraits seemed to fall into a specific color category and prompt color-centric names. In typical ADD fashion, my brain started spinning 100mph. What if I turned those muses' paintings into a picture book for animal loving kids? I shared my idea with three friends in the industry, and they eagerly offered their expertise. I am truly indebted to them. Illustrator and author Matt Faulkner and children's book author and literacy expert Kristen Remenar edited an early version of the draft. They suggested key plot/conceptual changes that made it oodles better. Designer Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelson worked her magic, pairing the images with perfectly color...

Tabby Kit

"Tabby Kit," 5" x 7", acrylics on a museum quality panel, depicting a tiny little orange striped guy from Morgue File . This painting can be yours for $289, which includes s&h inside the US. And in case you didn't see it, a little doodle of him is also available for sale here . Inquires may come directly to me . Although it certainly doesn't FEEL like spring here (snow and ice and wind chills, brr!), I can tell that spring is coming. The mercury is rising a wee bit each day and the days are getting longer and brighter. Over the weekend we drove with the moonroof open just to feel the sun's meager and oh-so-very-welcome warmth (although the heat in the car was cranked, too, in the interest of full disclosure!). I wanted to work with spring-like colors today, and this little guy was still on my mind , so I grabbed a small panel and got to work. Of course, I also have Poppy to finish and some changes to make to another po...

Dear Copyright Thieves

Dear Copyright Thieves, Just because it's on the internet doesn't mean it's free for the taking. So let's just stop pretending the internet is a free-for-all. Don't play the card that you didn't know - that's insulting. And don't also tell me that you meant to follow up and get permission but never got a chance to. That's insulting too. And by the way, don't you have a copyright protection notice on your own site? And don't even try and point the finger at a third party who commissioned you to make a copy of my painting - again, an insult - you and I both know the difference between a reference photo and a painting. And don't tell me that I asked for it because I share my artwork on the internet. I share my paintings and ideas and the stories behind them so as to encourage others to pursue their own passions . I do not share so that those lacking integrity and morals can copy and market the images as their own...
